I was Chrismated in the Soviet Church so technically by ROCOR-L standards I am an apostate. I know the reality of the MP. I tried to explain it to people in ROCOR-L from first hand experiance. They in general arent interested. False ecumenism, organized crime, ultra-nationalism, Stalin whorship, Red Army whorship, the list goes on. I can only presume that you are either indifferent too or find these things praise-worthy. If thats the case you need to repent. The actions of your Synod are worse than those of Met Sergius.

These are human failings, these are not the Church's failings.

You obviously don't read very well, try actually reading my posts instead of skimming through them...... You don't know me and it is judgemental to "presume" anything.
I should know better than try to argue with rabid "anti-unia" people....I shudder to think the level you all will take the Church. I certainly don't want to be in your shoes...
I'm done .... for now at least....

At this point, I think words won't do any good as posters who finds themselves at wrongs when exposed to light, will continue more and more, because of pride, to reply and attempt to destroy with caustic words and insults, etc. This is a situation where only God can intervene.
Lord! enlighten their hearts and minds and show them the narrow path to faith, love and peace of heart in Your Church so they'd be one in Body and Spirit with you as I, unworthy may I be, am.
Lord bless them!

The point is we dont consider the Moscow Patriarchate the "Church".

That you would even consider being "pro-unia" means that you are indifferent to these things.
Did Abp. Antony of LA do something wrong? I can't quite interpret it correctly as online translations don't work that well: http://www.russianorthodoxchurchinexile ... 20064.html
Thanks.
